Is there An Alternative to Mind Numbing Research and Expensive Data and Map Purchases

Its pretty expensive to buy all the reports and old books like the excellent "Gold and Ghosts" books by D W; De Havelland and the many information packages provided on gold prospecting.

Do you really want to outlay all of that cash and then spend days and days reading it and trying to make sense of it?

Do so if you wish, we reckon its part of the challenge to find Gold anyway.

....But - If you want an alternative method to save time and money we may just be developing it now for you...

We are pulling together Gold Prospecting Location reports based on our research and many years of local knowledge so you can save heaps of time and money but still get all the knowledge you need to find gold in simple, plain english.

These simple, easy to use and easy to read reports will provide you with SPECIFIC GPS LOCATIONS AND DATA and Local knowledge insights on how to find gold in each locality in Western Australia.

We are currently developing these Gold Prospecting Location reports and will release reports by area on a monthly basis in the near future.

If you are interested please sign up to our Gold Prospecting e-News email newsletter below which will announce these reports as they are created - be the first to get them.
